If you think a podcast about law and politics has to be dry, Discourse is here to prove you wrong, spectacularly. Professor Wayne has the uncanny ability to make constitutional crises sound not only fascinating but also weirdly entertaining. He’s like if your favorite history teacher had a stand-up comedy side gig.
Take his breakdown of the Boston Tea Party in the episode Understanding the Looming Constitutional Crisis. He argues that America was basically built on complaining about the government, and honestly, isn’t that the most patriotic thing you’ve ever heard? But instead of just ranting, he makes a compelling case for thoughtful protest, saying, “I argue that that criticism should be done in a respectful manner.” Which, let’s be real, is a solid reminder for anyone who’s ever rage-tweeted at a politician.
Wayne doesn’t just tell you what’s happening; he tells you why it matters, without making you want to nap through it. If you like your legal analysis sharp, insightful, and sprinkled with humor, Discourse is an absolute must-listen. Founding Fathers-approved.
